The K2M Team recently explored options for the transformation of a dayroom, a dining hall, and an outdoor rec yard from a traditional concrete floor / wall / ceiling environment into one that emphasizes restoration, therapy, and group engagement. The options focused on the dignified treatment of inmates to enhance outcomes while preserving safety and security.
The K2M Design and DS Architecture team collaborated to conduct a thorough citywide needs assessment for the fire department and its service area. This assessment focused on identifying optimal locations for future fire stations, considering projected regional growth over the next 10-15 years. Additionally, the team crafted a tailored conceptual design for an ideal fire station that aligns with the department’s specific requirements. The accompanying image visually showcases this design.

Our latest partnership is for the development of a property in the center of Marathon to provide eight affordable townhomes as well as a storefront along US1 (the Overseas Highway) for Habitat’s Restore, the outlet for recycled furniture, building materials and fixtures that helps finance the non-profit’s activities.
